A Simpler Way To Fundraise

Running a fundraiser shouldn’t feel like an added burden. Many traditional campaigns require time, volunteers, and financial commitment—something not all groups have available. Bags for Bucks was designed to take those barriers out of the equation.

Instead of selling products, your supporters donate clothing and household items they already own. America’s Thrift collects, turns in, and processes these items. Your group receives funds based on the number of full, qualifying bags.

It’s an efficient model that minimizes the pressure on your team while maximizing the impact for your cause.

Ideal For Woodstock’s Community-Based Groups

This program supports a wide variety of local organizations. Whether you’re fundraising for a school club, team, church mission, or neighborhood project, Bags for Bucks fits your purpose and your schedule.

Groups that benefit from this model include:

  • Public and private school PTOs and student-led programs
  • Youth sports teams and booster clubs
  • Church ministries, service projects, and mission trips
  • Community nonprofits, service organizations, and scouts
  • Performing arts programs, bands, and cheer squads

You don’t need a large team or a long list of volunteers. All it takes is a committed group and a network of local supporters.

How To Get Started With Bags For Bucks

Launching your drive is easy and free. Here’s how the process works:

  1. Request your donation bags from America’s Thrift Stores using the online form.
  2. Distribute the bags to your members, families, and supporters.
  3. Collect gently used items such as clothes, shoes, books, linens, and small household goods.
  4. Return the filled bags to a participating America’s Thrift Store.
  5. Receive payment for each qualifying bag donated.

You decide how long your drive will run. It could be a one-week challenge, a two-week community push, or a rolling collection that aligns with an event or seasonal cleanout.

Support That Goes Beyond Your Group

When your team participates in Bags for Bucks, the impact goes far beyond your immediate fundraiser. Donated items are either resold affordably in-store or recycled responsibly, helping reduce waste and promote reuse in the greater Woodstock area.

In addition to supporting your cause, each donation contributes to larger initiatives funded by America’s Thrift Stores. 

These include:

  • Programs for addiction recovery
  • Children’s healthcare services
  • Workforce training and job readiness
